Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ROBERT GARD'S TIMELESS BOOK is a moving account of one man's struggle to bring his dream of community-building through creative theater to citizens around the country. He traveled across America -- from New York's Finger Lakes to the prairies of Alberta, Canada, to the backwoods of northern Wisconsin -- discovering and nurturing the folklore, legends, history, and drama of the region. He talked to ballad singers, painters, tellers of tall tales, and farm women, whose poetry and painting reflected the elemental violence of nature and quiet joys of neighborliness. Readers will discover in Grassroots Theater a spiritual autobiography of Robert Gard, a rare chronology of a little-known era in theater history, useful projects for local community groups, and lively discussion of such cultural themes as the role of the arts in American democracy. Grassroots Theater reminds us that an individual's creative vision transcends technology, current events, and changing demographics. Writes Gard, "The knowledge and love of place is a large part of the joy in people's lives. There must be plays that grow from all the countrysides of America, fabricated by the people themselves, born of their happiness and sorrow, born of toiling hands and free minds, born of music and love and reason".

Historical Dictionary of Asian American Literature and Theater, Second Edition contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has more than 700 cross-referenced entries on genres, major terms, and authors.
